Arturia Pigments 7 Plugin

Arturia Pigments 7 is a next generation software synthesiser that puts six powerful sound engines, a vivid visual interface and studio grade effects into one inspiring instrument. From instant, mix ready presets to deep, modular style patching, it is designed to take you from first idea to finished track inside any modern DAW.

Whether you are producing club ready bass, cinematic atmospheres, experimental textures or polished pop hooks, Pigments 7 gives you the tools to shape sound in a fast, musical way. A redesigned Play View, colour coded modulation and dynamic visual feedback let you see exactly how your patches behave, while new filters, FX and content keep you on the cutting edge of contemporary production.

What's new in Pigments 7?

• Redesigned Play View for immediate & tactile sound exploration
• 3 new creative filters: Rage, Ripple, Reverb
• New Corroder FX module for modulation-driven distorted sounds
• Improved modulation visualisation & CPU performance
• Enhanced punch & presence with S-shaped amp envelopes
• New creative content including 162 new presets, 50 new wavetables, tutorials & more

Limitless Sound Design Power

Pigments 7 combines six cutting edge synthesis engines with engine cross modulation, so you can layer, blend and warp sounds in almost any direction. Move effortlessly from classic virtual analogue tones to complex wavetable movement, granular soundscapes, physical modelling and additive harmonics, all within a single plug in. A huge factory library, macro controls and carefully curated presets mean you can get inspiring results immediately, then dive deeper when you are ready.

Visual, Intuitive Workflow

The colour coded interface and redesigned Play View make Pigments 7 feel more like an instrument than a plug in. Waveforms, envelopes, filters and modulation sources animate in real time, so you can literally see how your sound is evolving as you tweak. Drag and drop modulation, hover based quick edits and clear visual modulation ranges keep complex patches understandable, helping you stay focused on creativity rather than menu diving.

Built For Modern Genres

From hip hop, trap and bass music to EDM, house, electro, lo fi and cinematic scoring, Pigments 7 is voiced for current production styles. Performance ready macros, a generative sequencer and arpeggiator, and punchier default envelopes make it easy to dial in hard hitting basses, cutting leads and evolving rhythmic patterns that sit straight into a mix. Whether you are sketching ideas or finishing a track, it integrates smoothly into your existing workflow.

New Creative Tools In Version 7

Pigments 7 introduces a fresh Play View identity, three new creative filters, the Corroder FX module, and a wave of new content to keep your sound design palette evolving. Filter Rage, Filter Ripple and the Reverb Filter open up aggressive, phase rich and timbre shaping possibilities, while Corroder adds modulation driven erosion and distortion that retains the character of your original signal. Optimised modulation handling and CPU improvements give you more headroom for layered engines and heavy FX chains.

• Six Cutting Edge Synthesis Engines - Combine virtual analogue, wavetable, sample and granular, harmonic oscillator and modal physical modelling engines, plus cross modulation, to build everything from classic synth tones to futuristic textures. This multiengine architecture lets you design complex, evolving sounds without stacking multiple plug ins.
• Redesigned Play View and Visual Modulation - The updated Play View and animated interface show waveforms, envelopes, filters and modulation in motion, so you can understand your patch at a glance. Visual modulation ranges and colour coded routing make advanced sound design approachable and fast, even when working with intricate modulation setups.
• Generative Sequencer and Performance Macros - Create evolving, polymetric patterns with the built in sequencer and arpeggiator, complete with advanced random generation and sequence lock. Four assignable macro controls put expressive performance and real time sound shaping at your fingertips, ideal for live use and dynamic studio automation.
• Premium FX and New Filters - Shape and polish your sound with three FX slots on each of two insert buses plus a send/return bus, featuring 20 algorithms including shimmer reverb, multiband compression, distortion and vocoder. New creative filters like Filter Rage, Filter Ripple and the Reverb Filter add aggressive drive, intense phase movement and unique timbral sculpting perfect for modern bass and lead design.
